I hope you enjoy this story that I got from katie13 (yes another one) that she said that she had never put up on this site.
Chapter 5
Remus looked up from where he was trying to control himself and said "Sirius, wait! We need to get Harry someplace where no one would look for him!"
Sirius crossed his arms stubbornly and said "Here."
Remus shook his head regretfully and looked his friend intently in the eyes when he answered "No. Sirius, as much as I would love to have Harry here, it simply isn't safe. Voldermort would look for him here."
Sirius dropped his arms to his sides and sighed in defeat, "You're right."
The two friends stood in silence for a while before Sirius suddenly jumped and yelled "I know!"
Not bothering to explain to Remus what he was planning to do, Sirius grabbed a bit of parchment and a quill and ink from the table and sat down.
Then, he began writing a letter.
Dear Gram, Papa,
You
said that if I needed help, then all I needed to do was ask. So I am
asking you now that you take care of my godson Harry Potter until I
can.
Love,
Sirius
Then he placed the finished letter aside and picked up another piece of parchment.
Dear Mr. J. L. Smith,
You
know that the trust says that I can remove Harry from the Dursleys. I
am sending you this letter to tell you to remove Harry from the
Dursleys and send him to my grandparents. Enclosed is the letter that
Harry sent to me, read it and you will know why I want to remove him
from the Dursleys.
Yours
sincerely,
Sirius Black

The letter arrived at Mr. Smith's and after reading it, he knew that he had to get the Harry right away.

There was a knock on the door and Uncle Vernon answered it.
"Who are you?" he questioned suspiciously.
"Mr. Dursley? I presume. I am Mr. J. L. Smith and I have come to take Harry James Potter to a new home."
Vernon laughed nervously and stepped back to let the lawyer enter the house.
"That's okay," Vernon said quickly.
Mr. Smith regarded him over the rim of his glasses sternly, "You have no choice in the matter, and the trustee of the trust has reason to think that his life is in danger. I am sorry but Harry Potter must come with me."
Uncle Vernon frowned, knowing that he had lost, that he wouldn't be able to sell this house, and at the same time worried what Mr. Smith would do about Harry's….. Condition.
"Okay, take the boy then," Vernon told Mr. Smith.
Harry couldn't believe his luck when Mr. Smith told him that he would finally leave this house and live with Sirius' grandparents. Harry packed his belongings and went with Mr. Smith. Mr. Smith took Harry to a huge mansion a half hour away from Privet Drive.

When Mr. Smith knocked on the door an old woman answered.
She took one look at Harry and exclaimed "Good Lord, what happened to him?"
The lawyer frowned as he guided Harry into the house, "Vernon Dursley," he said darkly.
With that, the old woman took Harry upstairs to a bedroom and called a doctor.
When the doctor arrived half an hour later and saw the condition Harry was in he was surprised that Harry was still alive.
So, do you like? Should I continue?
